Blue sky 18 frame extractor

just be sure you are comparing apples to apples not apples to oranges

Check the gauge of the metal and the motor size and type.. That will tell you a lot about the equipment. Then call Jake @ Maxant for a pleasent business experience. Just received my new 1400 and its a beauty. Dually 02

The gauge on our extractor is 22, as a comparison, in the past Mann Lake's was 26 (NOTE: the HIGHER the gauge number, the THINNER the metal).

Maxant makes an excellent product. Our extractor is also of high quality and is mated to a high-grade American Baldor motor. I have used our 18-frame heavily for the last 5 years and it runs like a champ every time.

Please note, as of today, we are backordered on 18-Frame extractors for about 2 weeks. First in, first out on pre-orders. Planning on extracting in July? You might want to get one on order now.

Nonetheless, I think you'll be happy with either choice.

Has any one used a 18 frame extractor from blue sky. I am going to purchase a extractor and the maxant 20 frame is $500 more than the one from blue sky is it worth the extra $$.

Um sure Walmarts sells a lot of Black & Decker also. You would have to give Maxant a call they get excellent shipping rates & costumers service is second to none also. Note my location. But Walter Kelley also stocks some Maxant items.They also in my experience get great shipping rates.

i had my maxant 1400 shipped to my primary work address since commercial rates are typically cheaper then shipping to a residential address.

It's a stainless can, a shaft, a couple of bearings, and a motor. It's not exactly high tech. There's not a lot other than the motor to break.

Ross; we're not gonna let you get away with using that common sense on this forum. We know ways to complicate a darn anvil!
